The AAPS Awards Program brings attention to and celebrates the most impactful science as well as the scientists who serve as role models in the pharmaceutical science community.
2023 Award Nominations Deadline: Wednesday, May 3, 5pm ET. Submit your nomination today!
The greatest AAPS honors will be awarded to three individuals who represent the peak of our membership. They exemplify who we are and who we want to be.
The well-known and respected Distinguished Pharmaceutical Scientist Award: “A lifetime achievement award intended to recognize an individual who has made substantial contributions to the pharmaceutical sciences that have had a lasting impact. The focus of those achievements is research and advancement of science.”
The Global Leader Award “recognizes a leader working in pharmaceutical science, technology, engineering, or education whose contributions to the pharmaceutical sciences community have resulted in an outstanding positive impact on pharmaceutical education and/or public health. AAPS recognizes these leaders both as a means to support their work and to encourage pharmaceutical scientists around the world to keep driving toward treatments and cures that improve life for all global citizens.”
Finally, the AAPS Distinguished Service Award “brings recognition and public appreciation to an AAPS member for a lifetime of service to the organization. Distinguished Service Award recipients have demonstrated the inclusive, collaborative volunteer leadership that AAPS values and depends on.”
AAPS will also continue to recognize the top manuscripts published in AAPS’ journals, as defined by citations and downloads, with the Outstanding Manuscript Awards. A full list of all the awards and honors may be found in the 2023 Awards Guide.
We want to acknowledge and honor the most impactful members of our organization, so please consider nominating those in your work life who deserve recognition by Wednesday, May 3, 5pm ET.
Several awards allow for nomination by colleagues, and we hope you will speak up for someone you know who is too modest—or busy—to speak for themselves! We also hope to see more participation from industry and regulatory scientists who belong to AAPS. We strongly recommend that our best role models apply, regardless of geographic region, area of science, or work sector.
